Oh wait, this is a father asking his child to avenge him. The original post was the other way around. My bad.

It’s one thing to kill someone in self-defense or in defense of another while the victim is being raped, beaten, or what have you, as in the case of the little girl. It’s something else entirely to plan to kill the person who victimized your child and carry out that plan. That’s cold-blooded murder as far as I’m concerned and those who do that should go to jail. What would happen to society if every parent went around getting vengeance? I thought vengeance belonged to God.
The problem for the Mercado family is that the daughter didn’t “want” to be “rescued”.
well...that and the fact they weren’t too clever about it...
Shooting at him in the car, with the daughter inside...
Sex without moral contraints does become aggressive and has no qualms with targeting children. Libs want to legalize adult sex with children calling it a ‘child’s right’ and children are easily manipulated by adults who would harm them without thinking twice to please themselves.
So, in the future, a lot of parents are going to be faced with abandoning the sense of responsibility for the well being of their children or killing sexual aggressors who take advantage of their children. It’s going to make Sodom look like a picnic.
If you look at what liberals have done with normal men in their homo brain washing - they made it illegal and shameful to take out homo predators and sexual harassers of normal men. They will do the same thing to parents when they move on to other people’s children.
I would be sympathetic toward the parents of the 17 year old girl. They rescued her from a gangster. That she maybe didn’t want to be rescued is neither here nor there. She’s their under-aged daughter; they have a responsibility to get her out of that situation.
The predator would be back after her, and if he couldn’t get her, he would get someone else.
We delegate justice to a professional system, but it is not the property of the system. There are times you have to act, and then face the consequences. They may do time for what they did; that doesn’t mean they should not have acted.
“up to and including lethal force(in extreme circumstances), to protect their children from the wicked individuals out there who would prey on them. “
I think “prey on them” is extreme enough to warrant lethal force. We used to hang pedophiles and rapists, now we give then 18 months in prison and lifetime therapy.
The families shouldn’t need to lift a finger. The community should do the job.

Not the same. One is clearly a case of defense, and one is not.
How about the case where the father found out the neighbor was molesting his 13 year old daughter, entered the neighbors house and killed him in front of his mother? Oh wait, that really happened, except the girl had lied about being molested to cover for the guy she was really screwing.
Due process exists for a reason. The founders weren’t a bunch of dumbasses that threw it in for giggles.
